My children, 2 daughters are full grown and hate me. Although I do as much as hand stands for them they bothe hold it against me as I had an affair 25 years ago. My marriage to their dad was bad. We had lots of arguing and my husband drank a lot coming home and arguing with me. I know I was wrong, I never had an affair again. I thought all was well till they grew up with their own familys and problems. Now they blame me for everything. They are very hurtful to me to the point my hurt goes right to my heart. They want me to hurt as I hurt them, at least this is what I think. How can I make it up to them? Any help would help me. I am still married to the same man for 38 years, I am a good person who made mistakes at a young age. My girls will not let me live it down. What can I do. I am to the point of just backing away as I cannot change the past. They are my life and I need to get some outlook on this for me. Thank you. Joanie
